Chapter 257 The Fifth Lady is about to be bewitched by you
A few days after the Third Prince and the First Prince escaped, the Spring Examination came.
As the Vice President of the Spring Examination, Jian Ruonan caught many cheaters while supervising the examination at the Ministry of Rites.
In ancient times, candidates cheated in many ways. Some bribed the examiners to write secret codes on the test paper, some hid cheat sheets in their chrysanthemums, some asked others to take the test for them, some passed the answers to the papers by pigeons, and some paid to write for a few more hours...
Jian Ruonan found a palm-sized cheat sheet with more than 300,000 words densely written on it. Some people even cheated on their vests...
Sure enough, it was the same in any dynasty. People would rather spend time and effort to make cheat sheets than spend time memorizing these knowledge points.
Bringing cheat sheets is not a big deal. The most outrageous thing is that there are even thieves who sneak in to pass messages to candidates...
The cheating methods are no less than those of modern times, which really opened Jian Ruonan's eyes.
The Spring Examination lasts for three days. Candidates can bring cooking utensils to cook. In order to save time, most candidates eat dry grains and steamed buns. There are actually candidates who cook hot pot in the examination room.
The hot pot is authentic and full of fragrance, which makes the candidates next door lose interest in answering the questions.
Jian Ruonan received the complaint and rushed to deal with it. Unexpectedly, the person eating hot pot was an old acquaintance - Wang Defa.
After not seeing him for a while, Wang Defa seemed to have grown a little taller.
He was wearing a long shirt and a Confucian scarf on his head, which was quite elegant like a scholar. Jian Ruonan almost didn't recognize him at first sight.
Seeing Jian Ruonan, Wang Defa stopped eating, winked at her secretly, and handed over a pair of chopsticks.
The red soup in the copper pot was bubbling, and the aroma was overflowing. If it weren't for the Minister of Justice and the Fourth Prince beside her, Jian Ruonan almost couldn't help sitting down and eating a few bites.
Jian Ruonan asked: "This candidate, if you don't hurry up to answer the questions, what are you eating hot pot for?"
Wang Defa stood up and replied respectfully: "Master, I have finished answering."
Jian Ruonan: ? ?
Finished?
So fast?
The exam lasted for three days, and only one and a half days have passed. Some candidates have to spend money to buy time if they can't finish.
Jian Ruonan, wearing an official uniform, with her hands behind her back, walked up to him in a formal manner and knocked on his desk as a reminder.
Don't make trouble, this is my place.
Just eat a few bites.
Wang Defa immediately turned off the fire and sat back at the examination table, saying that he was a law-abiding candidate with five good grades.
He did not stand up to clean up the copper pot until Jian Ruonan left with his hands behind his back.
After inspecting the examination room, Jian Ruonan returned to the proctor's office to eat melon seeds.
[Wang Defa!! Not a bad young man, taking part in the Spring Examination at the age of ten?]
In the Spring Examination, there were many middle-aged people and even elderly people. Young candidates like Wang Defa were extremely rare.
Tan Taimo sat next to him with a gloomy face.
[Hey, Wang Defa is really not here to make trouble. He ranked in the top ten in this Spring Examination. I didn't expect him to be so awesome?! 】
In Jian Ruonan's eyes, Wang Defa is just a naughty kid who is older than Teng Ge'er, and his naughtiness index is twice as strong as Teng Ge'er.
I didn't expect him to be so successful at such a young age!
Sure enough, naughty children are smart.
Tan Tai Mo's eyes gradually darkened.
Xuanwu System: [Xiao Si, why are you jealous again? For no reason!]
[This Xuanwu noticed that you are no longer evil, but jealous recently?]
Tan Tai Mo: [......]
After the inspection, Jian Ruonan was ready to sit for a while and go home. Tan Tai Mo suddenly said: "Minister Wu, do you have extra test papers? I want to answer some questions too." The
Minister of Justice immediately ordered someone to bring a test paper.
Jian Ruonan raised his eyes and glanced over.
Tan Tai Mo was seen wearing a dark green python robe with four-harmony and Ruyi patterns, and a jade crown on his head.
Although he was sitting in a wheelchair, his stature was as tall and straight as a green pine.
The test paper was quickly brought to Jian Ruonan, and Jian Ruonan thought that he was just pretending to be cool, but he was holding a pen and writing with unusual concentration.
His pen moved like a dragon, his long eyelashes were slightly lowered, his face was as plump as jade, and he was dashing and outstanding.
Jian Ruonan was so fascinated by it that she even forgot to complain.
Only after Tan Tai Mo finished writing one side did Jian Ruonan let the dog system call Xuanwu.
Dog system: [Woof woof woof——]
The Xuanwu system blocked the fourth prince and quickly replied: [Miss Fifth, what do you want?]
Jian Ruonan: [The fourth prince started writing the test paper for no reason. What is he trying to do? 】
The Xuanwu system curled its lips and smiled: 【Don’t try to guess the thoughts of the evil villain, you will never understand no matter how much you guess! 】
Jian Ruonan: 【......】
【I am asking you a question, not asking you to sing! 】
The Xuanwu system thought, Miss Wu is so ignorant, Xiao Si opened his screen so obviously in front of her, but she didn’t notice it? !
Xuanwu was tired.
The Xuanwu system thought about it and felt that it couldn’t be too subtle when talking to Miss Wu, who was so stupid, and it had to be straightforward: 【Miss Wu, the Fourth Prince is showing you his masculine charm! 】
【To put it more colloquially, it can be called "courtship"! 】
Jian Ruonan: 【......】
Fuck courtship!
You are making up stories about your host behind your back, why didn’t your host beat you to death!
Dog system: 【What kind of display of masculine charm is this? ! Nan Nan can’t read, even if it is displayed, Nan Nan can’t tell! 】
Xuanwu system: [Ah, it turns out that Miss Wu is illiterate like me, Miss Xuanwu. Nice to
meet you! 】Jian Ruonan: [Nice to meet you, I can still recognize simplified Chinese characters. 】
Xuanwu system: [I can also write poetry! 】
[Forget it, no more nonsense, Miss Wu, don’t you realize that the Fourth Prince is both literary and martial, and extraordinary? 】
[I am not bragging, it is hard to find a handsome man like our Xiao Si who is both virtuous and brave in the whole of Da Xia!]
Jian Ruonan looked at the Fourth Prince and licked her lips: [He is quite handsome.]
The Xuanwu system coaxed him gently: [Do you feel a little moved?]
The dog system replied: [Our Nan Nan can't bear the hardship of getting married!]
The Xuanwu system: [... Not hardship, not hardship at all, our Xiao Si is very virtuous.]
[Oh?] Jian Ruonan suddenly became interested: [In what aspects is he virtuous?]
The Xuanwu system: [Listen carefully!]
The Xuanwu system brewed for a long time before shouting: [The Fourth Prince is still a virgin! 】
Dog system: [Puff——]
Jian Ruonan: [......]
The little bit of romantic thoughts that were finally born, disappeared in an instant.
Xuanwu system: [Our Xiaosi is very avant-garde, and this life is also a life of one couple! 】
Jian Ruonan looked at the Fourth Prince, his eyes full of sympathy.
After meeting Xuanwu, the Fourth Prince has not turned evil, in fact, his emotions are still stable.
It was really unfair to say that he was emotionally unstable before.
Tan Tai Mo was concentrating on answering the questions, and he caught a glimpse of Jian Ruonan's cheeks that were a little red.
[Xuanwu, the Fifth Miss seems to be blushing? 】
Xuanwu system: [Yes, you kid continue to write the paper, and the illiterate Fifth Miss was immediately confused by you, Xiaosi! 】
